The Unreliable Recruitment Team

The waiting room, which should have been a square hall, was now evenly divided into four sections by sparse iron railings.

Each section corresponded to one institution, with huge black characters on the ceiling above indicating the institution’s name.

Rows of desks and chairs were neatly arranged, and behind them sat the admissions officers who had come from various institutions to report to the provincial capital.

They had previously gone to various counties to invigilate exams, and now they had returned here to connect with interested candidates, confirm treatment details, and finally sign the letter of intent with them.

Huang Xiu stood at the exit of the corridor and looked around. There were quite a few candidates in each section.

But the section with the most candidates was still the one belonging to the Management Bureau.

There was no help for it; after all, the Management Bureau was the institution specifically responsible for covering the bottom line. No matter how low one’s qualifications, the Management Bureau would give out a ticket.

In the waiting room, the area for Tiandu University was allocated to the rear right, far from the entrance.

Huang Xiu followed Professor Yuan toward the Tiandu University area, needing to pass through the territory of the Management Bureau and the Conquest Bureau.

She kept her head down the whole way, trying not to be seen.

But she still underestimated her current influence.

As soon as people saw her, their eyes lit up and they shouted, “Big shot!” The crowd showed signs of gathering again.

Fortunately, Professor Yuan was there. He exuded authority at a glance.

His expensive suit gave off an air of nobility, making him hard to approach.

He gave a slight cough and glared. The crowd that had gathered immediately fell silent and dispersed in an instant.

“Xiao Yue, take out a letter of intent. From now on, Xiao Xiu will be your junior as well.”

Professor Yuan brought Huang Xiu and sat down casually in the last row of desks in the Tiandu University area.

Tiandu University had few admissions personnel this time, and there were even fewer people in the back positions.

Yue Zhengyang, who was in charge here, was busy with other matters.

Hearing this, she immediately looked up, and a clear hint of joy could be seen on her serious face.

“Long time no see, Classmate Huang. No, from now on I should call you Junior Huang,” she greeted warmly, then took out a thick booklet with gold-threaded cover from under the desk, along with a pen engraved with Tiandu University’s name and emblem.

Hearing the term “junior” again, Huang Xiu blushed a little, even though she had mentally prepared herself.

“You can still call me… ah, forget it, whatever.”

Huang Xiu originally wanted to correct Yue Zhengyang’s address, but when the words reached her lips, she thought of what her senior had said, and finally let out a low sigh, unable to say it.

She took the booklet and pen and flipped through it.

“Good! Classmate Huang!” Yue Zhengyang smiled gently, then stood up and bent over to explain to Huang Xiu.

This booklet was not only a letter of intent; it also contained some other very important things.

For example, the treatment of Tiandu University students, training plans, and future employment prospects.

It even included how to solve the identity problem of specials, and how to balance the real world with family relationships.

Regarding the sensitive issue of identity, Tiandu University would provide them with two student records.

One was a fake student record that could be made public.

This record would be attached to the Cultural Department of Tiandu University, and could even be checked on academic websites.

One hundred percent authentic-looking!

The other was one that could only be found in the real world, within the official network of specials.

As for family issues, they were more complicated.

Not all families could accept their child joining a world full of mystery and danger.

They would rather have their child live safely.

Therefore, in response to this situation, Tiandu University officials would cover for the students and cooperate with them in concealing their circumstances.

Moreover, not everyone’s family had the authority to pass through the Wall of Reality and learn about the real world.

Only a portion, due to the student’s own reasons, required the family to be informed.

For example, if a student had severe psychological problems and needed a stable family environment to gradually resolve them.

Or like Huang Xiu.

She had undergone a huge change during awakening that was hard to hide, and couldn’t explain it to her family through technological means.

Because the cocooning period included a physical completion stage, this group of people was actually not small.

Generally speaking, for cases like Huang Xiu’s, Tiandu University would send a professional team from the school to make the student’s parents accept everything.

“So my school’s professional team… is you all?”

Huang Xiu closed the booklet.

She turned to look at the left.

Professor Yuan, dressed in a suit, sat aside with nothing to do, browsing videos of beautiful women on his phone, his face down on the desk.

This old pervert!

The girl’s mouth twitched, but her gaze involuntarily lingered on his screen for a moment.

Hmm! A blonde foreign woman, not her type.

She looked again to the upper right.

Yun Ning, who had disappeared for a day, was now secretly doing squats in the right corner, still wearing that so-called weight-training ring on his feet.

Okay, full of energy!

This guy was clearly the type who would rather work himself to death than let anyone surpass him.

Huang Xiu’s mouth twitched slightly.

These two really seemed so unreliable!

She couldn’t even imagine how chaotic things would be if the two of them went to explain her recent situation to her father and mother.

But… Teacher Yue Zhengyang seemed somewhat reliable.

Thinking about it, Huang Xiu turned her head and looked at Yue Zhengyang, who was slightly bent over waiting for her reply.

“Fine!” she said with some reluctance.

Yuan Fei somehow came over and clapped his hands, looking at Huang Xiu with a smile. “Why not strike while the iron is hot? Let’s do it tomorrow!”

“By then, Xiao Yue, the five of us teachers and students will go together. Many hands make light work!”

“Tomorrow…”

Huang Xiu was silent for a long time, then finally nodded heavily. “Okay, tomorrow it is!”

She had always known that some problems couldn’t be solved by procrastination.

After settling this major matter, the rest, like treatment and benefits, didn’t seem very important to Huang Xiu.

Anyway, whether she wanted to go or not, she had to go to Tiandu University now.

She listened through these things, appearing serious but actually distracted.

Then she couldn’t wait to sign her name on the letter of intent, and stood up to leave the exam hall and go back to the hotel to rest.

After signing the letter of intent, candidates could leave the exam hall.

“Let’s go!”

Professor Yuan reached out to beckon Yun Ning, who, upon hearing the sound, quickly took off the weight-training ring and ran over.

“Professor…” Yue Zhengyang suddenly grabbed Yuan Fei, who had already turned to leave. “You still have a meeting to attend later, right? You didn’t forget, did you?”

“Hahaha.” Yuan Fei rubbed his head, using laughter to cover his embarrassment. “How could I have forgotten!”

“I just simply don’t want to go!” He slapped away Yue Zhengyang’s hand, speaking with righteous indignation.

“Isn’t that even worse than forgetting?”

Yue Zhengyang said expressionlessly, then quickly reached out and directly grabbed the collar of Yuan Fei’s suit.

“You’d better come with me obediently! The school leaders are waiting for your admissions report with the other people in charge!”

As he spoke, he pulled Yuan Fei by the collar toward the corridor behind the area, leaving behind only a miserable wail.

“I don’t want to go to a meeting!” Yuan Fei waved his hands, looking very pitiful.
